Histoire du Tango for Clarinet Quartet by Astor Piazzolla

Histoire du Tango for Clarinet Quartet by Astor Piazzolla adapted by Bruce Edwards from the transcription for saxophone quartet by Claude Voirpy. Editions Henry Lemoine, 1997, SS. This is a wonderful and challenging piece which has been transcribed for a variety of instruments and combinations of instruments. The four scenes portrayed are: Bordel 1900, Café 1930, Night-club 1960, and Concert d'aujourd'hui (Modern Day Concert). Edwards has provided an exceptionally large number of alternate parts: (first part for E-flat or B-flat clarinet and third part of basset horn, alto clarinet, or B-flat soprano clarinet). A low C bass clarinet is desirable, but only the last movement uses the extended range. (C0664)
